'My God': New claims about O.J. Simpson and bloody glove trouble former district attorney

“What we didn’t know until I saw it on this film was that O.J. Simpson was taking arthritic medication for his hands and he was told if you stop taking this arthritic medication, your hands will swell. Your joints will stiffen. My God,” Garcetti told “GMA.”

“Did it tick me off — and I would use a different word? Yes, it did,” Garcetti added. “But I can’t say it’s really crossing the line.”

http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-oj-simpson-knife-20160609-snap-story.html

Arthritis medication, or lack of, made the dudes hands swell up. It pays to have good lawyers. If this doesn't convince you he did it, I don't know what to say to that.

There was plenty of good evidence that could have sent OJ to jail, op.

The problem is that the LAPD couldn't help itself from adding some more for no reason at all.

Remember a few months ago when some rando dude claimed to have found a knife at the brentwood residence right when the FX series was ab to come out?

I assume it was fake or something

HBO or someone needs to do a documentary on the LAPD 1985-1995

do you think he's still searching for the real killer from whatever shithole prison he is currently rotting away in (somehow not for murdering 2 people but for an entirely separate criminal event)

Nordberg was such a good guy, it still surprises me that he was capable of holding up a bunch of sports memorabilia sellers. Yeah I knew he was a murderer, but the other stuff is still kind of a shock tbqh

Seem fair to me. Why should O.J. be made to suffer a lifetime of punishment for a mere twenty minutes of action?

Can you explain because I thought there was some pretty compelling albeit circumstantial evidence w/r/t this?

Maybe I just want it to be true because it instantly makes one of the most pathetic characters in US history into one of the most tragic

Either way the prosecution hosed up hardcore putting Mark Fuhrman on the stand because after those tapes came out yeah there's no way a jury is convicting. "But but he assured me he never said the N word!" isn't really doing your due diligence imo.

quote:

'I had 66 allegations of brutality: AEW, under color of authority, assault and battery under color authority. Torture, all kinds of stuff,'

I mean for loving real? You don't even need to know that the tapes exist or to hear them to know that putting that dude on the stand in such a racially charged trial is a huge risk.

I guess it's easy to be a Monday morning QB though.

On the FX show the black assistant prosecutor guy zones in on darden being racist in his first interview with him but his boss/love interest convinces him to go with darden dunno how much of that is made for tv drama though

Whatever happened to that knife that some dipshit detective held onto for all these years and never told anyone about? That was in the news for a while and then everyone just sorta forgot about it.
